213: Chapter 100 Awakening 213: Chapter 100 Awakening “This area of ruins was once the gathering place of the Three Great Sanctuaries, but sadly, with the severing of human talents hundreds of years ago, it was also subrged by the sea…”
Zhang Xiaoman led several people through the remnants of walls and ruins, even giving an “introduction” to the situation here.
“Now that the world overlap is happening again and the Great Fusion is imminent, with the vast changes between heaven and earth, this island has reerged.
Its ancient na is no longer known; I have nad it ‘Rebirth Island,’ symbolizing the rebirth of transcendent inheritance, and representing humanity’s hope against the Alien Species.”
Because Elder Ye and Lin Sisi were in the group, their progress was slow.
Zhang Xiaoman was utilizing his talent for boasting, casually pointing sowhere and slowly revealing a piece of secret history known to few.
“That distant mountain peak is called Goddess Peak, which looks like a girl in prayer from afar.
According to records, her na is ‘Nanmu,’ symbolizing hope and peace, a masterpiece from nature itself…”
Behind him, Lin Sisi, Brother Hero, and Ye Cang all listened intently, afraid to miss any detail.
Of them all, Ye Cang’s reaction to what Zhang Xiaoman spoke of was the most intense.
His face showed thoughtfulness and fascination, as if his mind had constructed an image of the Holy Land from the past, ensnaring him completely.
“Then…
Brother Man, do gods really exist in this world?” Brother Hero asked.
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head: “Although we have transcendent powers, we don’t believe in ghosts and gods.
There are no such things as ghosts or gods in this world, at best there are only things that are sowhat similar, and this you must rember.”
Brother Hero nodded at his words, and beside him, Ye Cang also looked pensive.
In their conversation, they had arrived at the entrance to the Land of Inheritance.
As the two stepped over the collapsed entrance and entered the hidden Underground Palace, they were imdiately captivated by its spectacle.
The spacious area was another world entirely; slivers of sunlight filtered through cracks overhead and the gentle whisper of flowing water could be heard in the background.
Although the surroundings were in ruins, one could still glimpse the splendor that once was.
The atmosphere, full of mystery and antiquity, left them intoxicated.
Zhang Xiaoman led them to the platform bearing the insignia of the Three Great Sanctuaries, where he had helped Lin Sisi with her Awakening the day before.
He asked the two Star Guards to stand at the foot of the stairs, while he himself ascended the platform and took out a translucent oval jade from within his long robe, which was the Jade Scroll he had previously drawn.
“Both of you, so things have already been confird with you beforehand, and I will not repeat them today.
I believe you are both aware of so situations concerning the Star Alliance, and as you beco Awakeners, you will also shoulder a heavier responsibility and duty.”
“You will uphold the eight principles of unity, humility, kindness, bravery, wisdom, sincerity, steadfastness, and magnanimity, and together with protect this world for a lifeti, never retreating!”
As he spoke each sentence, the expressions of the two below beca increasingly serious, and even Brother Hero, who had been relaxed until now, stood up straight, looking solemnly at the person above him.
“Mm…
the atmosphere should be set by now…”
Zhang Xiaoman nodded to himself, seeing the reaction of the two below.
This was yet another relic, another Holy Temple, along with the surrounding environnt.
It wasn’t in vain that he had taken so long to set it all up; it had finally served so purpose.
“Next, before the official Awakening, I want to show you a segnt of footage.
This is a scene recorded by our predecessors using extraordinary ans, and now I will reproduce it before you, hoping it can help you understand what exactly you will be facing…”
As he spoke, he infused a wisp of Dark Energy, activating the recorded images within the Jade Scroll.
A picture as real as life itself was imdiately projected, enveloping Brother Hero and Ye Cang as if dragging them into that shocking scene.
The expressions on both their faces turned to utter astonishnt.
Warriors, monsters, Dinsion Rifts, fierce battles – each scene seed as if it was happening right beside them, deeply imrsing them.
The strong emotional fluctuations from the hope seen with the arrival of three mighty figures to the despair following the ergence of new Dinsion Rifts were clearly reflected on their faces.
Accompanied by the last scene of warriors facing the monsters in the footage, everything ca to an abrupt halt, leaving behind an elder and a youth, the two onlookers who had been deeply absorbed, standing foolishly in the dimly lit palace, lost in thought.
After a long while, the two finally ca back to their senses.
Whether it was Brother Hero or Ye Cang, the look they gave Zhang Xiaoman was now filled with added respect and gravity.
“These are scenes of our predecessors fighting the Alien Species, recorded in their struggle.
Humans have been battling these monsters from Other Dinsions since ancient tis.
The guardianship of the Three Great Sanctuaries might be unknown to many, but it is engraved in our hearts.
From the mont you chose to join the Star Alliance, you have shouldered the responsibility and belief in protecting all of this…”
“Now, please tell one last ti, are you willing to officially beco a mber of the Star Alliance, to don the Daring Clothes, to light the Inheritance Fire, and to fight for the dawn and hope of humanity?”
“I am willing!
Brother Man, help awaken!
I want to annihilate all those monsters that dare invade our world!!”
Brother Hero was the first to speak, his youthful fervor boiling over.
Zhang Xiaoman’s gaze then shifted to Ye Cang beside him.
Mr.
Ye nodded, forcing a steady tone as he said, “Although Ye is advanced in years, he is still a mber of humanity.
Let also make a contribution to our holand.”
Zhang Xiaoman understood and said, “Well then, since that’s the case, let prepare the Enlightennt Awakening for you.”
He spoke and had the Star Guard bring over a large purple sand bowl filled with Awakening materials, deftly drawing the Dark Energy Formula needed for the Enlightennt Array.
As energy poured in, the materials inside imdiately transford into a silver-white liquid state.
“What I need to remind you is that the Enlightennt Array’s Awakening is not guaranteed to succeed, as it involves your will.
Elder Ye, you shall go first.
You have used the Dragon Sleep Stone, so you must have experienced the Illusions it creates.
This Awakening is similar to that; you just need to hold on to your true self and not be deceived by false images to successfully complete the Awakening…”
He said, explaining the things to be mindful of during the Awakening process, emphasizing several tis not to let go.
These were also the findings from Lin Sisi’s Awakening session the previous day.
“Brother Hero, you observe carefully the process of Mr.
Ye’s Awakening afterwards, don’t miss anything.”
After he finished, he handed the bowl behind him to Lin Sisi.
The girl cautiously took it and then moved to the stone podium below, beginning to draw the symbol representing the Star Alliance and the Three Great Sanctuaries—the Eye of the Starry Sky—following the steps from yesterday.
